The Recorder - Central Connecticut State University Entertainment Febuary 28, 2007 By Ted Ancher,Staff Writer “Grace Kelly,†a song by the new artist Mika, is number one in England. Who is Mika you might ask? Mika is a new London-based singer that sounds like a laundry list of performers. Think Freddie Mercury of Queen, meets the Bee Gees, meets the Beatles, meets Elton John, meets the Scissor Sisters, and that’s just a few names that make up the sound of Mika. Oddly enough, only the single “Grace Kelly†is out in America where, as of right now, it has stopped climbing the billboard charts at number 81. The album, Life in…

Manchester Evening News Mika , Buy his LP from Amazon 28/ 2/2007 3/5 27/02/07 CHANCES are, many of you are clicking on another story and harrumphing “Mika, Mika, Mika. That’s all we’ve heard for the last few months.†No one has been more hyped than the sexually ambiguous 23-year-old classically-trained Beirut-born Londoner. His debut single Grace Kelly and its parent album, Life in Cartoon Motion, both topped the charts, while this gig was upgraded to Academy 1 due to baying demand. Entering to Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 (don’t you just hate it when record labels make artists tone down their campness?) and dressed …

Q4MUSIC February 23, 2007 Number one singer Mika has pulled out of touring with Take That, reportedly leaving the band struggling to find a support act in time for their tour announcement next week. A source told The Sun, “Mika was considering the offer. But after his No1 he thought he could earn more headlining on his own. In the short term that may be true but Take That have such a huge following it would have given him the perfect platform to showcase his new album." “The Sugababes are one of the most successful UK bands yet they saw it as an honour to support Take That last time. They can’t do this one because they’re working on a new album. Girls Aloud a…

MCD (press release), Ireland MIKA Live in Spirit 1 March 2007 27 Feb 07 Take a light sprinkle of Freddie Mercury. Add a dash of Beck. Mix with a drop of Prince, a pinch of Bolan, stir well eh voila! Ladies and Gentlemen, please meet Mika. His debut single Grace Kelly will be released on Jan 26th and is already a firm favourite on radio request lists across the country! He is currently putting the finishing touches to his debut album Life in Cartoon Motion, which will be out in early March. 22 year old virtuoso Mika (pronounced 'Meeka') is the sort of goose-bump-brilliant star that British pop is in desperate need of right now.

Manchester Evening News Posted by Lawrence Poole on February 26, 2007 12:47 PM CONSIDERING the speed with which Mika took the British music world by storm, you could be forgiven for thinking the Lebanon-born phenomenon was the cynical concoction of a record company scientist, hired to fuse the soaring, disco camp of the Scissor Sisters with the dynamic showmanship of Freddie Mercury. As on paper there is no doubt such a thrilling cocktail would shift units by the truckload and so it has proved. Of course in reality, Mika was actually rejected by a number of record execs before finally securing his big break, apparently including pop impresario Simon Cow…

News & Star Published on 22/02/2007 Mika isn’t a conventional musician. His incredible life history to date, five-octave vocal range, unruly hair and neatly manicured nails ensure that he isn’t your average pop star. When Simon Cowell says he’s “strangeâ€Â, there’s a part of you that has to agree. “He told me that my songs were strange – he said something to the effect that I might as well not bother,†says Mika, smiling. “At the same time, he said I had a distinctive voice and that could help me out. I got upset to a point, but I realised he was clearly not the person to work with me. This was …

For Hecklerspray - uncharacteristcally, this is a surprisingly good review!!! The bit about drugs I would imagine is their sense of humour showing through. Careful Hecklerspray...

CW. --- HECKLERSPRAY Hecklergigs – Mika @ Northumbria Uni – 24/2 February 26th, 2007 by Matthew Laidlow Until yesterday, there had only been two acts to have been number one this year in the popular music charts.

BIRMINGHAM MAIL Feb 26 2007 Mika, Barfly, Birmingham By Andy Coleman HE was number one in the UK singles chart for six weeks, during which time he has also topped the album chart, but Mika was more than happy to honour his commitment to play the small Birmingham Barfly. And what a fun night it was. The 23-year-old Beirut born entertainer is a bundle of energy, bounding around the stage and flamboyantly waving his arms around. He even announced that his mum was in the audience. Most of his songs have an infectious quality which the sold out crowd couldn't resist singing along to. Opener Relax (Take It Easy) has a thumping disco beat and its resemblance t…

Reuters Sun Feb 25, 2007 7:02 PM GMT LONDON (Reuters) - Rising star Mika's reign at the top of the UK single and album charts came to an end on Sunday when he was ousted from the number one spots by indie band the Kaiser Chiefs and singer Amy Winehouse. "Ruby" from Leeds group the Kaiser Chiefs ended the singer-songwriter's five week dominance of the singles' chart, pushing the Beirut-born Londoner's "Grace Kelly" into second, the Official UK Charts Company said. R&B star Kelis climbed 12 places to third with "Lil Star", knocking hip hop artists Akon and Snoop Dogg's "I Wanna Love You" down to fourth with Denver pop group Fray's "How to Save a Life" movin…

The Sun - Bizarre February 23, 2007 IT seems MIKA’s No1 single has gone to his head. The Grace Kelly singer was lined up to support TAKE THAT on their European tour. But his ego has inflated since he topped the charts and he has pulled the plug. Now the lads are struggling to sign support in time for their tour announcement next week. A source told me: “Mika was considering the offer. But after his No1 he thought he could earn more headlining on his own. In the short term that may be true but Take That have such a huge following it would have given him the perfect platform to showcase his new album. “The SUGABABES are one of the mo…
